Kao the Kangaroo is a vibrant and charming 3D platformer developed by Tate Multimedia for Nintendo Switch — a triumphant revival of the beloved early 2000s platformer franchise that brings Kao back in a brand-new adventure built for modern audiences. When Kao's sister goes missing and his father's enchanted boxing gloves fall into the wrong hands, the young kangaroo sets out on a globe-trotting journey across colorful worlds to rescue his family and uncover the truth behind a mysterious dark force. With tight platforming gameplay, a diverse cast of worlds to explore, and the warm charm of classic 3D platformers, Kao the Kangaroo is a love letter to the golden age of the genre.
Classic 3D Platforming Reimagined
Kao the Kangaroo delivers the classic 3D platformer experience that fans of the genre have been craving — tight controls, satisfying jumps, diverse level design, and a wealth of collectibles to discover in every stage. Kao's move set includes punches, double jumps, wall jumps, and the powerful Eternal Gloves abilities that unlock as the adventure progresses, giving the gameplay a satisfying sense of growth and expanding possibility as new skills are mastered.
Colorful Worlds to Explore
Kao's adventure takes him across a diverse range of beautifully crafted worlds — from lush tropical jungles and ancient ruins to icy tundras, volcanic landscapes, and mysterious dark realms. Each world is packed with platforming challenges, hidden secrets, collectible KAO letters, and optional areas that reward thorough exploration with extra content and lore about the game's story.
Eternal Gloves — Elemental Powers
The Eternal Gloves are Kao's most powerful tool — enchanted boxing gloves that channel elemental powers including Fire, Ice, and Lightning. Each element has unique combat and traversal applications — Fire burns through obstacles and ignites enemies, Ice freezes water surfaces and creates platforms, and Lightning powers electrical mechanisms and stuns foes. Mastering the Eternal Gloves is key to overcoming the game's most challenging sections and uncovering its deepest secrets.
A Heartfelt Story of Family & Courage
At its core, Kao the Kangaroo is a story about family, courage, and finding the strength to face the unknown — told with warmth, humor, and genuine heart. Kao's journey to rescue his sister and honor his father's legacy gives the adventure an emotional grounding that elevates it beyond a simple platformer into a genuinely touching experience.
